What Wikipedia says

NGC 5701 is a barred lenticular galaxy with a ring located in the constellation Virgo. It lies at a distance of about 50 million light years from Earth based on redshift-independent methods, which, given its apparent dimensions, means that NGC 5701 is about 65,000 light years across.
